David Jaffe, the outspoken and razor-sharp game creator who brought us God of War and Twisted Metal, joins the cast of this week’s Game|Life podcast.

After discussing his recent reboot of the car-combat series, to be released Feb. 14 for PlayStation 3, we delve into all sorts of topics, from online passes (Twisted Metal has one, over Jaffe’s objection) to used games to Jaffe’s plans for the future. Wired magazine senior editors Chris Baker and Peter Rubin join me as we quiz Jaffe for a good hour-plus.
